Sodium hydride → 2-{[5-{[(4-tert-butylphenyl)sulfonyl]amino}-1-methyl-4-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]oxy}ethyl Acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-{[5-amino-1-methyl-4-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]oxy}ethyl acetate (Preparation 5) (250 mg) in dimethyl acetamide (2 ml) at room temperature was added sodium hydride (41 mg, 60% dispersion in oil), the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes. To the mixture was added 4-tert-butylbenzenesulphonyl chloride (79 mg), the mixture was stirred for a further 1 hour. The reaction was diluted with water (20 ml) and extracted with diethyl ether (20 ml). The organic fraction was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica, 10 g) eluted with dichloromethane:ether (1:1) to yield the title compound as a pale orange solid (40 mg).
